It must bring a feeling of regret to every American, when he reads how much more rapid progress is being niade in the field of aviation in Europe than in this country, decent reports have indicated also a great interest in avia tion in South America, but American flying apparatus is not being pushed down there as it should to compete with the European makers. ' ".; The reason commonly given for this failure is the large number of fatalities that have recently occurred in develop ing aviation. Yet in England 400 to 500 people have been crossing the English Channel each week, and more than 1000 people a week have been taken up on joy rides, yet nrt one passenger has been killed or seriously injured in a British airplane in 1921. A record like that is very hopeful for the future of aviation. : A company called the General Air Service has now being incorporated which is planning to put into use a sys tem of air lines throughout this country. I his will not njerely provide valuable commercial facilities, but will help develoi) aviation for the protection of the country. Planes and airships will be the controlling factor in the next war, if that dire event ever descends upon this peace loving land. - There ought to be plenty of business for airships. If a planned, such a craft covers the distance from New York to Chicago in 10 hours, and New York to the racific coast iri 40 hours, and other long distance routes, it will have all the business it can do, assuming that operation is made as safe as it has been in England the past year. Time is a trc- lQendotts factor in modern business, both for passenger and express service. Many people will pay heavily in emer gtneies for this quick transportation. Many cities need to be prepared for aviation by secur ing convenient and level fields for use as landing places. .. ; ; 0 The woman who considers herself merely something to hang clothes upon merely has a husband whom she con siders merely something to hang bills upon. o Life i n the cities is eettinrr too complicated. It has now become almost impossible to sec all the pictures every week. Judged by the attention that other people give our business it Is evident that nobody is in the right business. o Only those believe in "the survival of the fittest" who consider themselves the fittest. . o It seems to be impossible to be a good fisherman and be much good at anything else. The village loafer ought to move to the city where he won't attract anv attention. - T- -J U I 1 AVAILABLE OPPORTUNITIES AlmoHt ovi'ty dny boiho good oppor tunity Is arallttblM.

He continued to descend unaware. Oiut his machine was on tire until at tracted by the shouis of the people in the field below. The fire was put out by throwing dirt on It and the machine was not damnged. Imme diately after the fire, Ted made the hill three times in succession.

Bend High School Students Get Drunk BEND, Or., April . rupila of the school at Alfalfa, 20 miles east ot Bend, today broke up the regular sessions of the school by riotous con duct and forced she teacher to sum mon holp to quell the disturbance, when they became drunk on moon shine whisky. Five of the students, ranging in ages from 12 to 16 years, came to school with bottles of moonshine, ac cording to reports reaching here, and proceeded to treat their friends, so th.tt in a short time the entire stu dent bodybecame so unmanageable that the Instructor was forced to call for help. One of the pupils, it is reported, boasted that he was not dependent upon bootlegglngs'for his supply of whisky, but that he was operating his own still. An Investigation has been Insti tuted by County School Superinten dent Thompson In an effort to ascer tain the source of the liquor ob tained by the students. KAHY TO SI'.T STOMACH liKillT.
